Three Revolutions

Why Education Leaders Need a Plan

By: Mark David Milliron

In this session, we’ll unpack how higher education leaders can leverage integrated planning to get ready for and make the most of the compelling revolutions at hand.
Abstract: Preparing for the road ahead in education is far from easy. In this presentation, we’ll explore why. For example, we have rowdy revolutions in the tools of teaching and learning, including the expanding use of mobile technology, assessment tools, gaming systems, augmented reality, virtual reality, and more; in large-scale student success initiatives, including advising reforms, accelerated learning labs, and pathways programs; and in the use of advanced analytics to move from a culture of reporting to a culture of care. We’ll also unpack how leaders can leverage integrated planning to get ready for and make the most of the compelling revolutions at hand.

5 Ways to Use Environmental Scanning

By: The SCUP Learning Team: Sadie Wutka, Director of Content Strategy | Nicholas Santilli, Senior Director of Learning Strategy

Typically, planning teams engage in an exhaustive analysis of the internal and external forces acting on the institution to set the planning context. But should scanning the internal and external environment be limited to the early phases of strategic planning?

If Tuition Rises . . .

. . . Does Racial and Ethnic Minority Student Enrollment Plummet?

By: QianQian Yu

When the cost of American higher education goes up, access to economic opportunity, social mobility, and positive academic outcomes are, subsequently, restricted for students of color. Campus admissions and retention planning professionals are first witnesses to the inequality.

From Volume 48 Number 1 | October–December 2019

Abstract: This article explores the impact of tuition increases on student retention and higher education admission and retention planning for racial and ethnic minorities. Research shows that the racial and ethnic minority student population on campus is negatively affected by tuition increases. Literature is examined for potential impacts of tuition increases on a student’s decision of school choice. And although literature provides little in the way of recommendations for resolving the issues associated with tuition increases, this article offers some suggestions for student retention planning.
